🌟 CONGRATULATIONS to Arnab, a fourth-grade student at Fairbrook Elementary, for receiving October’s Shine Award! Arnab was nominated by the fourth-grade teaching team and they shared why they nominated him!
“Arnab is the perfect example of a Fairbrook Fox and demonstrates the pillar of kindness by his willingness to always help a friend in need. He is the first one to quietly help a friend with an assignment or when they just need someone to talk to. He is a responsible PAX leader by always coming to class prepared and ready to learn and is a great example to everyone he meets. Arnab brightens everyone's day with a smile that reaches his eyes.”
Way to go, Arnab! We are proud of you! 👏👏 #BcreekSchools
